Switching from Tier 4 to Tier 2 before completing the degree

[toxic-rem]

I did my BA study in the UK and have recently extended my Tier 4 visa to do my masters.

Considering how hard it is to get a Tier 2 visa, I decided to start my job search. In case if I manage to get a full time job offer, would it be possible for me to switch to Tier 2 visa with my BA certificate or does it have to be my MSc certificate?

i personally think that you can only do it with a restircted cos and from your own country, and RLMT will have to be done.
you will not be exempt from rlmt, as you have not completed the course for which u currently have a tier 4 visa.

If the gap between the start date of your extended T4 and expired date of your old T4 is less than 28 days, you can use your BA to switch to Tier 2. No RLMT is required if u obtained your BA degree within the past 3 years.

Check Tier 2 General Guidance for concrete explanation.
